Break Indicators

Break indicators must not exceed 1 length behind the leader in the first call. Use the last 3 races  ( B1 = first call last race ) ( B2 = first call second too last race ) (B3 = first call third too last race) Break indicators in the last race ( B1 ) is considered much stronger than a break indicator in the second to last race ( B2 ) and a break indicator in the second too last race ( B2 ) is considered stronger that a break indicator in the third too last race (B3 ). When a horse shows a break indicator and finished close to the winner ( within 4 lengths ) we consider that the horse has already ran his race and may not be ready for another 4 to 6 weeks. If the horse show a break indicator and finished ( 5 to 8 length ) behind the winner, we would consider him to be a strong contender to win the race if he is the only horse that has a break indicator in the up coming race.

Example below    Horse A has two break indicator a B1 and B2. Both are in our 1 length margin, 1st / hd and 4th / 1/2. In his B1 race he finished 7th and 8 length behind the winner which is in our 5 to 8 length margin. He would be considered a strong winner if he is the only horse with a break indicator.

Horse	Past Performance	Indicator
A	1st /hd   3rd / 2  6th /8  7th / 8	B1
	4th /1/2   1st / hd  4th / 3   4th / 3	B2

Longshot break indicators If a horse is the only one that showed a break indicator in a race, and it occurred in the third too last race ( B3 ) and the horse ran poorly, ( 5 to 8 length  behind the winner ) in its last three races, we would consider him to be a good longshot. A B3 is a very good indicator, and most of the public never notice the potential it has to offer. You may suffer a number of losses before hitting, but when you do, your previous investments is generously recovered. (Example below) Horse D has one break indicator ( B3 ) 2nd / 3/4 which is in our 1 length margin. In his last three race he finished 9th by 6 length, 8th by 7 length and 7th by 8 length which are all in our 5 to 8 length margin. He would be considered a good winner if he is the only horse with a break indicator.

Horse	Past Performance	Indicator
D	9th /7    9th /11    9th /14    9th / 6
	11th /8 9th /12   8th /13    8th / 7
	2nd /3/4  4th /5     5th / 7  7th / 8	B3

Example below             In a nine horse field A, B, C, qualifying trials. A had one, B had three, and C had two. The horse with the most indicators usually proves most productive. Horse C was going at good odds but it is not advisable to wager on a horse to win three consecutively.

Example below    In this field A, B, C, were the only horses with indicators. B appeared to have the weakest indicator with only one break, hence we would eliminate him first. A and C share almost equally, if we are to conclude that a break is about equivalent to two workouts, as illustrated in the table above but A might have already ran his race with a 3rd / nk we would have to go with C.

Race Grading System

In this system we will use the racing form. We will give each race a point value, race 1 = 1 point, race 2 = 2 points, race 3 = 3 points all the way up to the feature race. All races after the feature race will be given 3.5 points. Example

Race 1 Race 2 Race 3 Race 4 Race 5 Race 6 Race 7 Race 8 feature Race 9 1 point 2 point 3 point 4 point 5 point 6 point 7 point 8 point 3.5 point

Using the racing form we will only use the last three races no matter the distance or off track. Add the point value of the last three races which will not exceed 3 x your feature race. Let's say that the #1 horse has the highest total points which is 18, we will give a three point spread. We will use all the horses with 15,16,17, and 18 points, discarding the rest of the horses. Out of the horses with the value of 15,16,17, and 18, we will pick the horse that were 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, in both the first and second call of his last race and discarding the rest. The remaining horses we will use to wager on.

Angles & Angle Players

1) Long Shot Angle This long shot angle requires the past performances. It is based on an increase in weight. To be L.S. spot, the horse must have looked terrible in his last two races, But instead of getting weight taken off under the conditions, for his poor showings, he is being brought back today at a higher weight than the last two races that he did so poorly. The reason might be that  the trainer knows his horse has come to form as a result of the tightening he got in these two, or maybe the last race. There are other ways for a horseman to judge sharp form than the manner in which his horse finished recently. So he's anxious to capitalize on this sharp edge. He Takes the first race in the condition book in which his horse will fit. He may even have selected it because of the high weight his horse will have to carry, knowing the horse to be a good weight-packer when sharp. And those two bad races plus a boost in weight should keep the two-buck bettors off in droves, hence an even better longshot price. 2) Mutuel Poll Angel This is a tote board angel. but requires a little advance work. The bettors works with Consensus which is include in the Racing Form. He markes these Consensus horses on his program as "A" "B" "C". He simply stands close enough to win mutuel window so as to be able to hear the numbers called out as the better back their hunches or their judgement, or as they do in most cases, the Consensus of opinion of the public selectors. Every time the bettor hears a number called out he markes a vote opposite the horse name in pencil. He continues this until he has marked a hundred votes. Then he compares the odds on the tote board to the votes on the poll he took. If one of the horses is bet substantially below what his straw poll indicates it should be, then he concludes a gob of smart money has been bet on this played-down nag, probably through the $100 window, which is never used in taking the poll. He then goes along with the smart money, but he plays to place, for the smart money, he figures, is stable money. 3) Disqualification Angel This type of player has to have patience for there aren't too many of these spots. He has a play only when he finds a horse that won his last race but was disqualified and deprived of the win purse. The idea here is that the trainer will do everything in his power to hold the horse together until he can send him out again to collect a purse to replace the one taken from his grasp last time. They do seem to bounce right back with surprising regularity. 4) Odds Wagering Angel Assuming that you are in the class of a $2 better, a very simple plan to follow is to bet the amount of the odds shown on the tote board. If the horse is going at 2:1, bet $2 ; if going at 4:1, bet $4 ; if going at 12:1, bet $12. Avoid the situation where your wager leaves you with nothing to win and everything to lose.

In other words never invest more than $65 maximum to get $100 in return, and be sure you have selected your horses carefully. To dutch just two horses I will ususally play this way: Lets say I have a 4/1 horse and a 10/1 horse and I believe that one of the two will win. I will put 60% of my wager on the horse with the lower odds as he is more likely to win, and 40% on the higher odds horse. Of course if both are the same odds I'll just split my wager evenly on the two horses.____________________________________

Horse Money Earn-Ability Take the total number of races the horse finish in the money this year and dividing it by the amount of money he earn will give you the class of the horse. Using this as a system for betting, This will pick about 29% winners bets, 47% place bets, 63% show bets. Most of these will be top favorites. If the horse did not run this year then use last years stats, this will not be as accurate if there is a long layoff.
